Severe coverage is expected to remain low and a weather watch is unlikely. DISCUSSION...As of 2325 UTC, regional radar analysis showed scattered thunderstorms were slowly intensifying along a frontal zone across the mid MS and lower OH Valleys. Early day convection and lingering cloud cover has resulted in stunted heating through much of the afternoon. As a result, buoyancy is not particularly large around 500-1000 J/kg despite surface dewpoints in the mid 70s F. A few storms have managed to develop and slowly intensify along the front over the last hour. Area VADs are supportive of storm organization with 40-45 kt of effective shear. Deep-layer shear will support transient supercell structures capable of isolated hail and a few damaging gusts. The coverage of organized storms appears low given the limited buoyancy and WW is unlikely. ...Lyons/Thompson.. 08/13/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_JA53TLKPMMDb0-aRzJvTgGAn61K7Tilo5Rl7mqg4K9kWGsRa-GdLvnP56cIkjn06JoltCPOl= c3VkiSURynTj9iSA9c$ for graphic product...
